Part of the seele repertoire are high-strength engineering textiles (fabrics, mesh fabrics) and film such as:
- PVC-coated polyester fabric (PVC-PES)
- PTFE-coated glass-fibre fabric (PTFE-glass)
- Silicone-coated glass-fibre fabric (silicone-glass)
- Coated or uncoated fluoropolymer fabric
- ETFE-film
As a company with ISO 9001 accreditation, the quality of all processes, procedures and products is crucial for seele. Lightweight membrane designs in the form of transparent, coloured or printed ETFE film cushions or membrane shade sails in double curvature are designed and fabricated by seele with the utmost quality and precision and, depending on requirements, with or without a load-bearing structure.
It is precisely the fabrication of and connections between ETFE film that call for a wealth of experience when forming plate and shell structures in double curvature. All the relevant know-how is available at seele: high precision in the planning process, taking into account the structural and constructional influences and requirements specific to each material. Those ETFE skills are brought together by seele in an engineering department staffed by highly qualified architects, engineers, technicians and designers. The proven, acknowledged safety concept for the use of ETFE film as structural components in architecture and construction, which was developed by seele, forms the basis for all calculations.
